Gentle tour through lanes and streets north of railway station. Fascinating stories by Judy and got to see areas we might not have thought about. Certainly brought Melbourne to life. Lasted about 3 hours with a coffee/chocolate break.

Our walking tours of the city CBD allow us to introduce you to the culture and characteristics for which Melbourne is famous. Difficult to describe, but such a feeling: Melbourne has a subtle vibe with endless hidden secrets tucked inside covered walkways locally known as arcades, and down character filled laneways, which deserve an introduction. A big city can look like many other places, and there is not always time to get lost, and discover the new or local discrete corners. We live and breathe our city, now for over 20 years, in work and play. We have seen the streets and architecture change, we can share the history or now, as well as that of generations past.
